For the past two months, off and on, I've been having this weird sensation in my chest. It feels kind of tight, at times it feel as if someone is sitting on top of my chest. It is extremely uncomfortable. I also get sharp pains in my chest at random times. Sometimes, when I breathe in it'll happen.

I've been having problems with my bowels, which I have a different post for with no responses. Could it be related to that?

It happens randomly, and nothing seems to trigger it. I've tried taking tums (and similar things) and none of that helps. It just goes away when it wants too. I wake up feeling it sometimes.
